title: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H activation and amidation of arenes using N-arenesulfonated imides as amidating reagents.
abstract: Rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H activation-amidation of arenes bearing chelating groups has been achieved using N-arenesulfonated imides as efficient amidating reagents without using any base additive. Pyridine, oxime, and pyrimidine proved to be viable directing groups.
